The next day arrived.
Dawn had approached, but Lou Qianxue was still sleeping.
Dan Taiyuan lifted her chin and kissed her.
Feeling suffocated, Lou Qianxue sleepily opened her eyes...
The next moment, her sleepiness disappeared at once.
After that possessive and forceful kiss, Lou Qianxueâs eyes became dazed. A blush appeared on her face. âDan Taiyuan... when did you come?â
The man expressionlessly looked at her and stroked her long hair. âGo back to sleep. Iâm leaving.â
â...â
Lou Qianxue couldnât sleep anymore. She got up and washed up.
After having breakfast, she set off for the slave market with Lou Potian.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThere are many slave markets, but weâre going to the slave market of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce. Itâs the biggest chamber of commerce in the Tian Zhao Empire.â Lou Potian specified their destination.
Lou Qianxue nodded. She knew that the Chamber of Commerce was divided into five sections: The market for pills, weapons, beasts, slaves, and auctions. âGrandpa, how many slaves do you plan to buy?â
âIt depends on fate.â
âAlright.â
The two of them walked on the street. Many people recognized Lou Qianxue. They could not help but curiously look at her and whisper to each other.
âDid you see her? Sheâs Lou Qianxue, who is very skilled in alchemy, weapon refinery, and martial arts!â
âSheâs a bad omen! I heard that every time she appears, bloodshed follows. This time... will she...â
Whispers entered Lou Qianxueâs and Lou Potianâs ears.
âHaha, Qianxue, youâre really famous now.â
âItâs not bad.â Lou Qianxue smiled and said, âThis way, ignorant people wonât be offending us.â
Contrary to her words, however...
Just as they reached the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, a group of people walked past Lou Qianxue and Lou Potian and doubled back.
The leader of the men, who was dressed in luxurious clothes, stopped Lou Qianxue and passionately looked at her. âLittle beauty, have you come to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce to buy something?â
Lou Qianxueâs face suddenly sank.
Lou Potian frowned and said, âGet lost!â
âHuh?â The leaderâs expression worsened, and he disdainfully looked at Lou Potian. âOld man, what did you say?â
Lou Qianxueâs gaze turned cold. She kicked the man in the chest...
Bam!
The man was sent flying back, and blood spurted out of his mouth.
âYoung Master Hong!â The expression of the manâs companion drastically changed as he hurriedly chased after him. He worriedly asked, âYoung Master Hong, are you alright?â
âI... Pfft...â The leader spat out another mouthful of blood. He viciously glared at Lou Qianxue and Lou Potian, unable to regain his senses for a long time.
âQianxue!â Lou Potian glanced at his granddaughter. âArenât you being too harsh?â
âHarsh?â Lou Qianxue snorted. âNot killing him is already considered lenient.â
Not only had this man looked at her with that disgusting gaze, but he had also dared to scold her grandfather.
He was simply courting death!
âLetâs go to the slave market. I wonât stoop to his level.â
âAlright.â
The two of them walked toward the slave market.
âD*mn it!â The leader glared at their backs with hatred. âHow dare she treat me like this! I will never forgive her!â
âYoung Master Hong!â His companion appeasingly said, âIsnât the president of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce your uncle? Wouldnât it be easy to get him to deal with that little slut who dared to kick you?â
âGet lost!â Young Master Hong pushed him away. âWhy didnât you attack her when she kicked me? You actually let that little b*tch leave just like that!â
âYoung Master Hong...â His companion frowned and said, âYou have the highest cultivation among us. Even you couldnât withstand a kick from her, so what was the use of us attacking her?â
